Trump 2.0: an assault on science anywhere is an assault on science everywhere US President Donald Trump is taking a wrecking ball to science and to international institutions. The global research community must take a stand against these attacks.

We are heartened by this call to action in Nature, one of the most respected journals in science. It urges the global scientific community to speak out on behalf of those being censored and support research as the US government shifts away from its historic leadership

In suggestions about activism, this may be assumed, but I thought it was useful to explicitly state: we can call our congresspeople with pre-emotive feedback.

"It is with great enthusiasm that we announce Starfleet’s commitment to moving beyond so-called diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and embracing a post-bias future where everything is fine and no one needs to think too hard about it."

Local news deserves high marks for coverage of the doge fallout Reporters are telling gripping human stories, connecting the dots from DC to main street, going beyond acronyms to explain what government agencies do & giving voice to concerns of regular people

@newsjennifer.bsky.social on the gripping and impactful DOGE reporting by local news outlets: "It would be both ironic and so very American if the rich and powerful oligarchs were finally stopped by the underfunded newsrooms and working-class reporters." jenniferschulze.substack.com/p/local-news...

Just attended one of the best things I've ever seen at #gally1

@salterton.bsky.social discussing how sociological analysis of religion can enrich your appreciation of fandom

Julie Gardner has many more badge ribbons than Steven Moffat!! #gally1

This talk about whether Doctor Who is a religion absolutely ruled #gally1 #TARDISTalks

@salterton.bsky.social explaining the concept of collective effervescence at this #TARDISTalks is honestly making me deeply emotionally. #gally1

Any dictionary can be a pocket dictionary with big enough pants.

When the Patriot Act was passed, libraries got requests for patrons’ borrowing history. We were prohibited from disclosing those requests.

We deleted and shredded those records and stopped tracking reading history for that reason.

A painting of a bird next to the words"christ on a fucking bicycle what the fuck is this shit"

Doctor Who was really ahead of the game when it came to telling ai art to fuck off.

A six-panel cartoon titled "real and implied birds". In the two panels in the top row, there's a rough legged-hawk sailing through the sky, next to a smooth legged hawk, which has smooth human legs. In the second row, there's a great-crested flycatcher looking dapper, next to an ok-crested flycatcher that has just a slightly less nice crest. In the third row, there's a mountain chickadee standing up on stones, next to a valley chickadee peeking out from a dip between stones. In the fourth row, there's a least bittern standing in some reeds, next to a most bittern that is enormous and stomping through a city, with people running in fear, helicopters overhead, and an overturned car on fire.

Another thing I made this year: Real and implied birds.
